Title: james ward born ireland 1868
Post by: advent on Tuesday 02 October 18 14:32 BST (UK)
Could any of my Roots Chat collagues please help me with the following.
I am seeking a James Ward born Londonderry Dec. 8th 1868

His father was Thomas Ward/mother Catherine Clifford.

He went to united states on a date unknown to me but I do know that he was in Ireland in 1898 where he is listed as best man at wedding of his sister which took place in Derry/Londonderry during 1898. We are to believe that he remained single all of his life (though not certain) and that perhaps he may have worked on the railways. Thanks for any help.

You can try

and just enter the following.

If you see how simple Searching can be for yourself, you can look for others as and when you need rather than someone posting results for you and having to ask each time

You haven’t mentioned that the surname varies.  His father was Thomas McAward as per your previous post and some of his siblings have that surname
